With the fresh funds, Dapta plans to refine its product, enhancing the user experience, bolstering security, and boosting overall performance.

Their platform not only simplifies the integration of AI and API technologies but also is tailored to support companies in refining their operations and scaling growth.

Since its inception, Dapta has experienced remarkable growth, now serving over 1,500 companies across 37 countries and earning a spot in Forbes’ Top 100 Startups in Colombia in 2023. By focusing on automating marketing and customer service operations initially, Dapta is setting its sights on broadening its AI solution offerings to address a wider array of business challenges, ensuring it delivers substantial value to its customers and stakeholders.
